Lyrics

I'm gonna tell you a storyStrange as it now seemsOf zombie voo-doo gris gris andThe witch queen of New OrleansShe lived in a world of magicPossessed by the devil's skewFrom a shack near the swamp landsOf mud pie brickMarie stirred her witches brew

Dime or a nickel any one could buyVoo-doo of any kindShe had potions and lotions, herbs and tanna leavesGuaranteed to blow your mindEarly one mornin' into mucky swamp dewVanished Marie with hate in her eyesThough she'll never return all the Cajuns knewA witch queen never dies
